Publishing RDF from Relational Database Based on D2R Improvement

摘要

As a key technology to implement Semantic Web, linked data have gradually been an academic and industrial concern. Linked data represents a practice of technologies on the web and linked structure data. The goal of linked data is to enable people to share structured data on the web as easily as they can share documents today. On the Web of data structured with linked data, users can jump from one dataset to another. Compared with the Web of document which enables one to jump from one document to another, data Web provides much more links and has semantics. Mapping relational databases to RDF is a fundamental problem for the development of linked data. This paper firstly makes an improvement with R2RML to open source software named D2R which can publish linked data, and then takes an example of the data concerning a college enrollment in Sichuan of China in 2011, demonstrating that we can publish the data in RDB into RDF as linked data through the new approach more efficient and make it browsable.
